What channel is Bayern Munich on today? Time, TV schedule to watch game vs. Eintracht Frankfurt

Fans tuning into the Bundesliga for the first time last Sunday got a glimpse at one of the world's best teams, Bayern Munich.

The Bavarians looked thoroughly professional in their first game back, earning a comfortable 2-0 win at Union Berlin. Bayern held a possession percentage of 62-38 and allowed just two shots on target.

Robert Lewandowski scored the first goal with a well-taken penalty kick that sent the keeper the wrong way. That brought his season goal total to 26 in league play and 40 across all competitions. It's the fifth season in a row he has hit the 40-goal plateau, something only Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo have achieved before.

His next chance to increase his goal tally will come Saturday against Eintracht Frankfurt at Allianz Arena in Munich. Frankfurt, coming off a 3-1 loss to Borussia Monchengladbach last Saturday, sits 13th in the league table with 28 points and a game in hand on everyone above, and is just 11 points away from the last Europa League qualification spot.

Die Adler (German for "The Eagles") have been a deceptively tough side; though they sit in the bottom half of the table, they have the seventh-best goal differential (minus-5), ranking ahead of perceived higher quality sides such as Schalke and Hoffenheim. They also have some of the sharpest-looking kits (home, away and alternate) in the Bundesliga, and they have an American on their team: Timothy Chandler.

Don't forget about the old guys, either. Thomas Muller may have hit 30 this season, but he leads the Bundesliga with 16 assists. And 34-year-old goalkeeper Manuel Neuer is still a world-class player between the posts; in 26 games, he and the Bayern defense have only allowed 26 goals, the fewest in the league.

Bayern has a four-point cushion at the top of the Bundesliga, and with second-place Dortmund traveling to face a tough Wolfsburg side, it might have an opportunity to extend that lead with a win Saturday.
